Rolled lead screw drives
Rolled threads · robust design · cost-efficient
When robust series solutions and cost-efficient manufacturing are the priority, our lead screw drives with rolled screws are the right choice. They enable high lead angles, long screw lengths, and flexible thread forms – ideal for high-performance drive and positioning tasks with defined tolerances.
Design advantages at Feinmess Suhl
- Large lead angles up to 90° – high travel speeds and efficient force transmission
- Long designs up to 3 m – ideal for axes, linear systems, and large positioning ranges
- Custom variants – thread form, material, and operating environment precisely matched
